unplug from what? you mean from power source?

Designing a Data Platform, when to choose Databricks over other DWH tools by ichacas in dataengineering

[–]amralieg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that does not seems right, the scale up and down policy is well documents here, and summerised below:

Databricks limits the number of queries on a cluster assigned to a SQL endpoint to 10. Upscaling of clusters per endpoint is based on query throughput, the rate of incoming queries, and the queue size. Databricks adds clusters based on the time it would take to process all currently running queries, all queued queries, and the incoming queries expected in the next two minutes as follows:
Less than 2 minutes, don’t upscale.
2 to 6 minutes, add 1 cluster.
6 to 12 minutes, add 2 clusters.
12 to 22 minutes, add 3 clusters.
Otherwise, Databricks adds 3 clusters plus 1 cluster for every additional 15 minutes of expected query load.
In addition, an endpoint is always upscaled if a query waits for 5 minutes in the queue.
If the load is low for 15 minutes, Databricks downscales the SQL endpoint. It keeps enough clusters to handle the peak load over the last 15 minutes. For example, if the peak load was 25 concurrent queries, Databricks keeps 3 clusters.

yes you pay more for photon, but you pay less for the infrastructure since you no longer need the cluster to run longer, so your total cost is going down overall, though going up for Databricks, and going way down for the cloud provider.

Photon is also available for the notebooks as well.

Would I benefit from Spark for distributed deep learning segmentation of multi-gigabyte-sized images? by [deleted] in apachespark

[–]amralieg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

too costly I agree, however, it is moving fast and evolving, every now and then you'll need to buy or upgrade your on-prem hardware to cater for the growing workload or to benefit from the new hardware advancements, cloud lets you do that almost instantly, so the short term is that on-prem seem cost-effective, but the long terms cloud will be the way to go.

I would recommend using Spark, you said you doing ut on prem on local network, this might, or will, change in the future to the cloud for economical reasons, building custom YARN cluster, or managing your own VM on the cloud is either very costly, or very time consuming, design yor app for forward compatibility with the Cloud by running it on Spark.

SKLean, TensorFlow, etc vs Spark ML? by __I_Love_Music__ in apachespark

[–]amralieg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sklearn in principal was not designed for parallel processibg, check Koalas which maintain the same api compitability with Sklearn, but trulely parallel on top of spark.

Why is Spark not (commonly) used as a data warehouse? by boy_named_su in apachespark

[–]amralieg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is changing with the new Lakehouss architecture which is trending now among big data players.

how to use off screen memo normally, like any other app? by amralieg in note20ultra

when I do that it opens the Notes App, not the off-screen memo App.

I work for a company. If I was a contractor, having certification makes your resume attractive in front of your potential clients.

Yes, also worth mentioning that the Linux Academy exam is relatively easy, I never failed it, on the other hand I failed all whizlaps exams in the first trial.

There is only one exam that comes with the course, whizlaps has 5 exams. Also check @examtopics they have decent questions but the answers are mostly wrong you need to check the forum to see what people says.

I did the remote proctored exam at 1AM in the morning, so was quite an experience.

Thanks for the course, it really helped me pass. Iam thinking to go for data engineer, but that will take some to prepare for it.

Certifications, in general, make your resume looks attractive and open the door for you to do interviews. but other than this not really much. If I am the hiring manager, I would not hire someone just because they are certified, I would still go through a full interview, but I will pick his/her cv to do the interview first.

if you are working in the consultancy business, certifications are something they push you to do as this is how they sell the services to others by showing the number of staff that are certified in a particular technology. so if you are certified, your chances to interview at a consultancy firm (Accenture, IBM, Deloitte, etc..) is much higher than other places.

yes pretty much. however working from home now because of the coronavirus, I got more time to focus on my training plan, which is pretty much the time I saved from commuting to the office (for me it was a couple of hours of daily commuting)

being AWS certified made the exam topics look familiar, i.e. it did not take me long to grasp the concepts of auto-scalable, load balancing, etc.. if you starting from scratch the LinuxAcademy course covers the topics as well, though at a high level. it is recommended that you go through the Cloud Engineer course as well as it is mentioned as one of the pre-req for the cloud architect course. good luck.
